I would suggest bypassing eBay / PayPal labels and instead use pirateship(.com).
- You can download labels as a pdf. Nothing to crop out.
- You will pay Commercial Plus rates regardles of what discounts your eBay account has.
- Can import eBay orders.
- No monthly fees.
If you still have a need to crop labels then you may want investigate a graphics application that allows you to create a custom batch crop action / script.
In the past I've used the Mactinosh version of Acrobat 10.1.1 Pro to create a custom action to automatically crop an entire folder of eBay labels in seconds. The following example instructions creates a Acrobat Pro action that duplicates each eBay label in the designated computer folder, crops out the unwanted areas and ads a prefix to the duplicate file names so your original labels are not overwritten. Once the custom action is setup all one needs to do is select the action in the application's menu.
0. Choose the following from menu:
File > Action Wizard > Create New Action :
1. Start with: “A Folder on My Computer”
(change popup to point to folder)
2. Click “Add Pages: Crop Pages” on left menu to add as step.
3. Click on "Options" icon on "crop Pages" step.
4. Enter these margins in "Set Page Boxes" window that appears:
Top: 0.955 in
Bottom: 5.95 in
Left: 1.3 in
Right: 0.725 in
5. Click "OK" to close "Set Page Boxes" window.
6. Save to: “The Same Folder Selected at Start”
(change popup to point to same folder as before)
7. Select Save to options icon and select radio button option: "Add to original file names" and add the following text into the "Insert Before" textfield:
_Cropped_
8. Click "Save" in "New Action" window.
9. Enter name "Crop USPS" into "Save Action" popup window and click "Save".
10. Acrobat > Preferences
Choose "Action Wizard" in left menu and uncheck "Show the Run Action Confirmation dialog" radio button so that Acrobat will stop showing a confirmation window each time after you choose "File > Action Wizard > Crop USPS".
